Multidetector CT of Midfacial Fractures: Classification Systems, Principles of Reduction, and Common Complications

Multidetector CT of Midfacial Fractures: Classification Systems, Principles of Reduction, and Common Complications is organized by Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).

Online Course Start Date: 1/10/2018
End Date for CME Eligibility/Online Expiration Date: 1/9/2021

Duration:
This journal-based CME activity is estimated to take 1 hour to complete.

Accreditation:
The RSNA designates this journal-based CME activity for a maximum of 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Description :
The goal of the RadioGraphics articles designated as self-assessment CME features and their accompanying tests is to increase understanding of the radiologic characteristics and possible therapeutic options for a variety of pathologic conditions and basic physics principles.

Content Areas :
The following Content Areas will be printed on the certificate for this course:
• Computed Tomography.
• Emergency Radiology.
• Head and Neck.
• Musculoskeletal Radiology.

Objectives:
• Describe the most common and surgically relevant systems of fracture classification for each midfacial subunit.
• Identify CT features that guide management, and recognize best practices in the utilization of axial, multiplanar reformatted, and three-dimensional volume-rendered images.
• Discuss the key limitations of multi­detector CT in guiding management.
